Dagang will use one of its two 330MW power units to demonstrate the capture of CO2 from its flue gas stream and then transport the CO2 for geosequestration and enhanced oil recovery.
The project is expected to showcase the development of the CO2 capture project that can be profiled internationally as a sustainable climate change project.
The parties also agreed to seek support and endorsement from all levels of the government of China to ensure the project becomes a reference site that will set new benchmarks for the validation and effectiveness of carbon capture and storage technologies.
Murray Bailey, CEO of EESTech, said: This is an exciting opportunity for EESTech, the development of this CO2 capture project will be the largest of its kind in China, demonstrating environmental benefits.
